The Winter that Never Was

Last winter, Emily and I checked the weather for London once or twice a week to see what we would be getting ourselves into by moving here.  This winter, we checked it every day because you never quite know what the weather will be like here in London.  Some days have magical symbols that look like this.

If you can tell me what that means, more power to you.  I believe it means "Today it's going to rain, be sunny, be cloudy, and windy all in one (not at the same time, of course, but oddly, sometimes it is all at the same time)".  Needles to say, the weather here is predictably unpredictable.  That means two things...

1. You always don't know what the weather is going to be like because the forecasts are often wrong or change so often and quick that it doesn't even matter.

2. You can safely assume the weather is going to be mild (no hurricane, tornado, blizzard, etc.)

Since we have been having nice weather these past few days (Sunny for at least 4+ hours and above 55°F ) I decided to bring the camera on my walk to school today and take some pictures.  For those of you locked inside because it's frigidly cold outside, enjoy my little album I like to call "The Winter that Never Was."  It never snowed here (yet... last year they said it snowed on Easter, in April).  It never even got below freezing, it rained A LOT and now it is warm, which has caused the flowers to bloom early.  Enjoy.

Waiter, There's a fly in my flower!

Deptford Town Hall, 

1. It stands outside the "city" limits of Deptford.

2. The Metropolitan Borough of Deptford no longer exists.

Because you made it to the end of the post, Thanks for reading and have a great rest of winter... Officially three more weeks
